very very good

Rating: Null/10 (6 November 2002)

~little spoilers~
This is one of the best films I have seen in a very long time! I absolutely LOVED the shots of empty London, probably most Americans wont get just how fantastically difficult these must have been to engineer, but they truly do set an uneasy tone.
The zombies are good as well, nice and fast and silent! Pretty much like someone had gone `these zombie things are ok, but how could we make em' better!'
If you like this film you may be interested in reading a book called `Z for Zacariah' its s similar idea, done differently. I get the feeling a lot of these comments criticising the film for copying others before, is less criticism and more people showing off about there film knowledge. Whatever floats your boat!
I liked it all, except, perhaps, the end 10 minutes. After the point where she could have killed the leading man. I REALLY would have liked to have seen her kill him, as he was infected. Then become infected herself. The last shot of the film should have been the little girl cowering in the back room with everyone closing in.
However, as my girlfriend pointed out, I was the only one that would have liked this, so well done Danny Boyle for making something good at the cinema!
